Backing Up Server to External Drive
Posted: Tue Oct 22, 2019 1:21 pm
Hi folks,
I am VERY new to networking and Amahi, but have successfully set up a home server in order to hold all the bulky files I don't want clogging up my laptop (music/pictures). However, as a result, I am now looking for the best way to back up the contents of my Amahi shares to an external drive, to ensure that I don't lose everything, should the old desktop from which I'm running Amahi go "bang".
I've done a search through the help documents and wiki but, between my lack of networking nouse and the fact that my searches all come up with tutorials on using Amahi to back up TO the server, rather than FROM it, I've not turned anything up.
Can anyone advise what the best way to back up the contents of my server would be?
Many thanks,
A
